F'rightful Work of a Stroke of Light
ming at a Funeral. T.

NASHVILLE, TENN, July 1.-THE
negro population of Mount Pleasant,
in Maury County, is greatly excited
and badly frightened over tragedy
that occurred there to-day. Harriet
Terry, popular young negro woman,
died yesterday, and large concourse
of her friends escorted her remains to
the grave, with the usual quaint sing
ing and shouting peculiar to the
Southern negro. Three ministers were
present, and it was about three o'clock
when the services were concluded. A
great black cloud had been approach
ing some minutes, and one of the minis
ters remarked that it looked like rain.
Scarcely had the words left his mouth
when great down-pour drenched the
party and they made a. break for the
nearest trees. The three ministers and
six others succeeded in reaching the
shelter of great black oak tree, and
were crouched close to its trunk when
the whole heavens were lighted up by
, a flash of lightning, and three persons
near this oak tree saw the party of nine
thrown in all directions. Running to
them they found that every one was
dead. The names of the killed are as
follows: William Burch, pastor of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, and Hat
tie, his wife; John Hannah, a minister
engaged in missionary work; Manuel
Orr, Methodist minister; Tom Rod
gers; Hester Terry, mother of the girl
who was buried, and her two daughters,
and Sebra Guthrie. Burch and wife
appear to have been struck In the face,
the current passing down the left side.
Burch's shirt bosom was blackened,
and his studs. melted.s Thewailing and
mourning of the ignorant creatures
who witnessed the freak of nature are
heart-rending. FtA
